Spring Flowers@ Kitazawa-river Walking Path: Feb. 26, 2011
Spring at the corner and spring flowers began to open.
I walked green walking paths on the way to and from Hanegi Park to enjoy the Ume (Japanese plum) Festival. I found several spring flowers and plants.
They included:
Sasanqua: red flowers, evergreen tree)
Ume (Japanese plum): The impression is different when I see Ume in the parks and in the paths.
Pansy: I found the flower in many flowerbeds in the walking paths.
Cherry: There are special cherry trees which open their flowers earlier than usual cherry in front of Yamashita Station of the Setagaya Line. I enjoyed cherry blossom.
Turip trees: They do not yet have the leaves. New buds are growing.
Kitazawa-river walking path runs in the Shimokitazawa and Umegaoka area. Small creek flows along the path. A white egret was walking in the creek. Flowers were beautiful.
There are temples and shrines along the path.
I often visit a small temple called “Enjo-in” along Kitazawa-river walking path. The garden is well arranged. There is a small pond in the garden and carp swim in it. There are red and white Ume (Japanese plum) trees there. They grow lotus in the pots.
I also visited Ringenji temple and Kitazawa Shrine today. I found various signs of spring there.
